Going to bed now, this phone has got me beat, still up and running, my S4 would've been dead long ago.
Also just ran AnTuTu and got 47780, not bad for a 1st run, will run AnTuTu again tmrw as well as 3DMark and Epic Citadel, and post results here, I'll also take some pics with the Note 4 and of it and post here, so far I am thoroughly enjoying it!

I found my S4 to have good batt life, I could get around 5h avg. on screen but with less intense usage, the Note is showing me a whole new way go about when I plug in.

How about the phone itself? Something written at the back once you removed the battery..
Just checked, mine says 'Made by SAMSUNG' under the batt, no country.

Sounds like you getting excellent battery life there Tsepz.I can sometimes forget to overnight charge my 1520 and still have enough juice to run till around lunchtime.Good battery life is most welcome.Looking forward to seeing some pics from that camera.

Thats very odd Luwi, maybe try change the NFC Processing Method, go to Settings -Connections -NFC and Sharing -NFC -click the 3dot button the top right corner -Advanced Settings -change it to Android Operating System, hope that helps, also ensure S Beam is on.
EDIT:
Thanks for posting your AnTuTu bench Luwi, the images weren't loading on iPad, very weird, any with Chrome on the Note 4 I see them, seems the Snapdragon and Exynos are closely matched. Samsung did a great job with optimising both.

I don't like the white sort of background in the setting menu of the Note 4 though. I prefer the Galaxy S5 settings background.

I prefer it in white the background as the black background in settings was getting a little boring after so long. One thing that I don't like in Touchwiz is the notifications area. For too long now it's been coloured green the shortcut icons on Samsung devices and it looks dated because it reminds me of Gingerbread days  Not slagging off the N4 or Samsung just something I don't like

I don't mind the white background in Settings, it's a nice break away from the dark TouchWiz we've been getting the last 4years, I remember the GS3 (I think) the AT&T variant had white in its Settings and other menus and I kind of liked it.
The green and turquoise/whatever it is that is the background of headers and tabs in the UI as well as in notification bar is going to take some getting used to though, I'm very much on the fence with it, its different but....hmmm...wouldn't be my 1st choice of colour, but I can live with it.
